What's wrong with "Capture"? (Score:1)
"Capture" is the name of a type, which you'll have to use literally in your Russian texts anyway - why not just use it everywhere?
I tried to translate parts of the Synopsis to German, and I found that translating all of the words would skew the meaning too far.
Anyway, if you insist on finding a translation, maybe something like "snapshot"? in my understanding a capture is a snapshot of a collection of things that can be passed to a subroutine...

Wrong with "capture" is that direct translation is not self-descriptive.
